Today marked my final day at ABC Newschannel 20 and FOX Illinois after nearly 2 years as an MMJ.

First, thank you to everyone who lives in our market who tuned in at some point. While every story may not have been an earth-shattering one, I did my best every day to tell a story worth telling and put my best effort in. It's been an incredible learning experience, and I'm grateful our area has been willing to share their stories throughout this time.

Second, thank you to the people who have supported me behind-the-scenes, whether it's family, friends, colleagues, interviewees, or viewers.

I'm taking a step back from the professional television industry at this time, while I sort out some things off camera. That is not at all to say I won't return to TV, and I'll certainly still be posting things here and there on this page. I can't thank everyone enough for the support and care you've shown throughout the past 2 years. Thank you for bearing with me as I learned the ropes, and I hope the work I did was informative and helpful for our area.
